SC-12 [L] Cryptographic Key Establishment and Management

Control

Establish and manage cryptographic keys when cryptography is employed within the system in accordance with the following key management requirements: [Assignement: requirements].

Discussion

Cryptographic key management and establishment can be performed using manual procedures or automated mechanisms with supporting manual procedures. Organizations define key management requirements in accordance with applicable laws, executive orders, directives, regulations, policies, standards, and guidelines and specify appropriate options, parameters, and levels. Organizations manage trust stores to ensure that only approved trust anchors are part of such trust stores. This includes certificates with visibility external to organizational systems and certificates related to the internal operations of systems. [NIST CMVP](#1acdc775-aafb-4d11-9341-dc6a822e9d38) and [NIST CAVP](#84dc1b0c-acb7-4269-84c4-00dbabacd78c) provide additional information on validated cryptographic modules and algorithms that can be used in cryptographic key management and establishment.

Assessment Objective

  1. cryptographic keys are established when cryptography is employed within the system in accordance with [Assignement: requirements];
  2. cryptographic keys are managed when cryptography is employed within the system in accordance with [Assignement: requirements].
